Answer:

I can not see the image, so i will answer in a general way.

As you know, the sound behaves like a wave, this means that the sound needs some time to cover a given distance. An example of this motion can be seen when you drop a little stone in water, and you can see how the waves expand.

This means that the one who will hear the sound first, will be always the one that is closer to the source of the sound, in this case, the sound comes from the ball hitting the backboard, then the one who is closer to the backboard will hear the sound first.

The current theory of the structure of the Earth, called plate tectonics, tells us that the continents are in constant motion.
lesya [120]

Answer:

(a) m = 1.6 x 10²¹ kg

(b) K.E = 2.536 x 10¹¹ J

(c) v = 7.12 x 10⁵ m/s

Explanation:

(a)

First we find the volume of the continent:

V = L*W*H

where,

V = Volume  of Slab = ?

L = Length of Slab = 4450 km = 4.45 x 10⁶ m

W = Width of Slab = 4450 km = 4.45 x 10⁶ m

H = Height of Slab = 31 km = 3.1 x 10⁴ m

Therefore,

V = (4.45 x 10⁶ m)(4.45 x 10⁶ m)(3.1 x 10⁴ m)

V = 6.138 x 10¹⁷ m³

Now, we find the mass:

m = density*V

m = (2620 kg/m³)(6.138 x 10¹⁷ m³)

<u>m = 1.6 x 10²¹ kg</u>

<u></u>

(b)

The kinetic energy will be:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

where,

v = speed = (1 cm/year)(0.01 m/1 cm)(1 year/365 days)(1 day/24 h)(1 h/3600 s)

v = 3.17 x 10⁻¹⁰ m/s

Therefore,

K.E = (1/2)(1.6 x 10²¹ kg)(3.17 x 10⁻¹⁰ m/s)²

<u>K.E = 2.536 x 10¹¹ J</u>

<u></u>

(c)

For the same kinetic energy but mass = 77 kg:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

2.536 x 10¹¹ J = (1/2)(77 kg)v²

v = √(2)(2.536 x 10¹¹ J)

<u>v = 7.12 x 10⁵ m/s</u>

compare and contrast the medical understanding of death (that you have read about and learned about in this chapter) and the pop
mixer [17]

The medical understanding of death is related to the scientific approach, and the popular understanding is related to the inclusive spiritual and cultural approaches.

<h3 /><h3>What is death for science?</h3>

Death occurs when an individual's cardiorespiratory and brain functions cease due to some factor, thus ending his life.

Popular understanding, on the other hand, is aligned with scientific knowledge, but it is also encompassing cultural and religious teachings, which define topics not proven by science, such as life after death for example.

Therefore, death is a delicate topic for society, and spirituality is the basis found for greater emotional comfort in individuals who suffer significant losses of loved ones.

Shalnov [3]
The mechanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the force produced by the machine to the force applied to it. Therefore, we may calculate the applied force using:
Mechanical advantage = force by machine / force applied
6 = 2 / force applied
Force applied = 1/3

Thus, the distance that the effort must move will be 1/3 inch
